Is there any way for my Microsoft account to be linked with a different PSN account?

I linked my Microsoft account with my father's PSN account when I was younger because I didn't have one of my own and I wanted to play games like Minecraft and such with friends online. Now that I'm a bit older, I was hoping I would be able to link my Microsoft account with my personal PSN account, but I can't get in contact with technical support from either Sony or Microsoft as they just throw poorly programmed bots my way that don't answer my questions. I can't even find the instructions to unlink my Microsoft account from my father's PSN account to begin with.

Can someone help with this? And if it can't be done, can someone at least explain why?

The short answer is no. Its not possible.

The long answer is:

LINKING A MICROSOFT ACCOUNT TO A PLAYSTATION® ACCOUNT

Note: Once a Microsoft account has been linked to a PlayStation® account, neither the Microsoft account nor the PlayStation™ Network account can be associated with a different account. 

If you choose to unlink accounts, then purchases will be returned to the account which made the purchase. Even after unlinking, Microsoft and PlayStation® accounts can only be re-linked to the original account.

Hello,

I've had an issue with Minecraft PS4 for a while where I cannot link my Microsoft account with my PlayStation Minecraft account.

When I try to link the two, the error I get is that my Microsoft account is linked to another PSN, when there shouldn't be.

I've tried reinstalling the game and I would like to connect my main Microsoft account as I've got purchases on there

(I'm not sure whether this is relevant but my Microsoft account is also linked to my Nintendo switch Minecraft too)

Any help and advice is much appreciated

Thank you

Had you by chance ever in the past logged into minecraft on a friends Playstation account using your own Microsoft account? Do that would have linked the two.

That being said if the Microsoft account is indeed linked with a different PSN account already then there is no way to fix that. Even if you got the two accounts unlinked it wouldnt let you relink a different account and would only ever let you link the account that is already currently tied to it.

heh my main profile has been that way since release. I just made a different account and linked it to an old PSN account I have had since PSN was created.
